Crisis in the Kremlin - thread 2: central planning is magic edition

What's cinema with Eisenstein?

What's cinema WITHOUT Eisenstein? My bad, another fucking typo

send the films, cultural hegemony is a kind of soft power that the union is low on right now

pick one

A fringe section of the party has suggested loosening the Union's great corset in the matter of non-state or collectivised enterprises.

That's clever, icepick-kun

Comrade spurdo reporting in.

In this case allowing co-ops to operate will make the people more happy and give an economic boost through surplus. Also its all worker run instead of state run so there's no exploitation in the process and its all in the service field, which as we found out last time requires propping up.

Just because it says private business doesn't mean we're promoting capitalism.

Huh, turns out co-ops are great after all…

i still say no

Are you leftypol's over a dozen US military bases in Syria ambassador? Also, co-ops ≠ private businesses

They will just be used as a tool to embezzle money from public factories.

Товарищ, вы неправ а you cannt have small businesses and OGAS. I would normally agree but Soviet Cybersyn is more important than some coop flexability.

The presidium consolidated the party line opposed to private enterprise.

Meanwhile the fight against reaction in Afghanistan continues. There has been a suggestion to make criminals fight on the front.

It's a decent idea

I was commenting more on the title of the issue than the nature of co-ops when I said that.

I don't really have an opinion on Rohjava.

in my experience it almost always ends up boosting corruption and lowering luxuries for the public because only the party elite get the coop goods

Agree, it is voluntary and would help us in preserving a socialist state.
Also General Secretary, I presume we are still sending Afghanistan arms when we can, yes?

Implement it.

Sure, go for it. What's the worst that could happen

I abstain from voting. I'm letting this issue to the experienced members

i say we do it, the people that would serve would probably help the soviet troops navigate effectively, which is the main problem in afganistan

REVISIONIST GANG ASSEMBLE

use the criminals

Huh, usually I had the opposite happen. I guess it all depends on the situation the economy is in when you enact the degree.

Penal battalions are always a good idea, only downside is that the western media won't like it since they see it as tyrannical.

Comrade, how am I revisionist?

Attached: 711slavojzizek.jpg (1600x1067, 199.89K)

Western media can peddle their lies, we are at defcon 3 it matyers naught.

In favour. Btw are we going to strike the talibs in Pakistan?

We need the chinese and indians onside first.
We should defo invade Iran tho.

1) It is going to be used mostly as a tool of speculation and money embezzlement for red directors
2) If that is not the case they are going to be selling cheap goods bought from factories at market prices for population.

-→

We can do that once Iraq-Iran conflict starts and we have enough stalinists in power to have a majority. We can choose either side if we didn't support the left-opposition of Iran during pre-game.

How are our reserves?

The bourgeois media apparatus is shaking with faux indignation at our policy but we see only success.

We've had three months of nothing much happening but our new budget is producing comfortable surpluses to refuel our reserves bringing them comfortably up to 400 million achieving our first immediate economic aim. A great day for the Union.

More importantly the military dictatorship in the occupied south of the Korean peninsula has been toppled and democratic elections are taking place. We could influence the result.

Too costly for a manuever that does not benefit us. Decline

I have no strong feelings one way or another

Support them, we need to get US out of there.

Support

is supporting liberal candidates really gonna do anything?, i don't really know so i abstain from voting

Attached: 1471030039006.jpg (600x572, 79.48K)

I say support, although I am cautious. If anyone can put forth good arguement not to, but equal Korean unification is beneficial to us.

user, if we do the confederation, they become neutral and we cannot invite them to the COMECON until the US falls. Also it takes like 50 money out of the budget.

Decline

I still say it's still worth it because it should harm US more than us. Getting North Korea out of COMECON should also help our funds, as we won't have to subsidize them (what NK even has to offer to USSR)?

The presidium is evenly divided on the issue, abstaining members should break the tie.

Attached: ClipboardImage.png (412x289, 160.13K)

I vote to support, nothing much to lose.

Decline. We don't gain much from that and it'll dig at our coffers.

i think we should do it after all, this could buy better reputation in western eyes, and at the end of the day it harms the us

More countries in the COMECON = more profits.

I'm skeptical that reunification will work, but it isn't that expensive. We should push for it.

Push for shits and giggles

Are we even gaining more than we are losing in trade with NK? If that's not the case we should just let SK carry the burden until our economy goes back on track.

I will purge you. We have the means to perfect cybersyn, private initiative is a relic!

Support. We've had good rolls with South Africa and Egypt.

Well they have rare minerals inside those mountains of theirs.

The only subsidies we actually give to our allies are the ones we choose to manually give through the diplomacy menu. More COMECON members only means that we have more trade partners which means bigger surplus that we can spend in the budget.

Although vigorous debate divided the presidium on the issue, the final vote was to support the democratic opposition which has now won the elections.

Meanwhile certain circles within our intelligentsia continues to send letters to the General Secretary's office.

Then I'll change my vote to decline. Reunification of Korea under capitalist regime will create a dangerous precedent.

Honestly, the only thing that choice would have done is move the legislative bar by one from state-planned to state-planned with market elements, and it could immediately be switched back to state-planned if we have the parliament majority and political power to do so.

I could be retarded, but does the IWW exist in the game? Because outside of the CPUSA, they’re probably one of the few strong leftist factions in the US.

Ignore all letters, if they keep sending them defund the postal service.

and no it doesn't

IWW is basically dead at this point, only since like 2014 have they come back.

Transfer money, it makes the citizens happier but spurdo user, what do about this?

There is an option to support left terrorism (a la the weathermen) in the US, but it doesn't do a whole lot.

Send the money to the cultural sphere.
Also i propose to review budget to permanently increase funding of culture.

these intellectuals just whine and whine, give them some spare change if we have any, if not don't bother

Ignore the attention whores.

These uppity intellectuals need to realize that we cannot expel constant money to appease their artistic rhetoric and fruitless ventures.

What letter?

but that's wrong user

Ignore the letter and start looking for more solutions in the budget menu. The presidium should collectively start to look into what works in increasing the opinion of the intelligentsia. Their opinion is pretty important since their ranks consist of teachers, professors and other influential people who can sway public opinion against us if they are left dissatisfied.

Antagonizing our intellectuals won't do us any good in the long run.

Ignore the letter but increase money for cultural enlightenment in the planning screen

If by that you mean that the IWW is strong only in an online fringe context, and only in the wake of what happened in Charlottesville, then you're right. Otherwise lol.

Also, last I've heard they've been massively co-opted by liberals and are undergoing internal spats because of it.

I thought the IWW died in the 90s, like the CPUSA did. My bad. I’m guess Black Panthers are also dead?

They ring a bell, but I don’t recall who exactly they are.

Change my vote to this:

This isn't your vote, comrade.

All you can do iz sponsor left terrorism in the US, so like red brigades shooting people up.

This is a good idea, you support culture without giving them any political relevance.

you are technically correct, but this is more fun to play by wanting to be ideologically correct

Oh yeah and because professors and doctors also make a part of the intelligentsia I have a pretty good guess that their dissatisfaction also influences how many science points we accumulate every month.

Attached: Sakharov.jpg (662x786, 452.38K)

After you vote, show us the influence map.

yeah i guess you are right

We ignored the letter and an additional 10 million was given to cultural enlightenment boosting it 150 million. Moreover 20 million was set aside for envelopes to intellectuals. They should be getting a good deal of mail of their own to satisfy them now.

The Ministry of the Interior has also been opened to policy changes which we may begin making in the coming months.

The eastern camp is limited at this point. We have few allies but our improving economy will allow us to change this in the next year or two at the current rate.
Also State of the CPSU.

i'm almost certain this is the case.
